Paul Wootton Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Hi, I currently use InDesign to work with complex Tibetan language documents. InDesign handles these unicode languages (formed of stacks of letters, like so: རྟུ) via their 'World-Ready Paragraph or Line editor facility. Is there a way facility for typesetting these kind of languages in Publisher? When I try I get collapses on certain characters. I haven't yet found a unicode character palette. Cheers, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Wootton Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 Shame that these languages are not supported. I hope its something that will be worked on in the future. There's a big market out there that used Chinese, Japanese, Tibetan etc., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no clear plan for non-Latin support implementation, sadly, I too am waiting for Chinese/Japanese support for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brahmansky Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Please continue to develop Affinity Publisher's non Latin-based language compatibility. Although Sanskrit is supported, TIBETAN [UNICODE] is not. I attached an image as an example [in red] of the errant rendering of the Tibetan.

Wyk Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Casting another vote for the "World-Ready Composer" feature. I work with Tibetan and we would love to be able to abandon Adobe for Serif. Alas, lack of the ability to properly work with Tibetan is a deal breaker for us. Please implement!! Warm Regards Wyk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
